Not gonna lie...I was very dissapointed to see the K-Stew question make the quiz. Not only was this quiz about movies, not celebrity "scandals", but the question was worded in such a way as to encourage still more hatred towards a 22-year old woman. The question could've been worded as "This married director took advantage of the 22 year star of his movie." He's the one who's really at fault here, but no one seems to mention that. Still love the site. Just not that question.
